Where's the best place to pick up a 64gb? I'm rapidly running out of space on my 32gb

There was one a while ago, but we all missed it.
It seems like they never happen. I've only got 6 weeks to get one too. >_<
Same! They were supposed to come today! What a new years disappointment!
There not out in North America yet. You have to import them from Japan and they do work on NSTC PS Vita's too
Friend just bought one at Winnipeg Costco.. he said there are 5 left
Vita 64gb are about 120 bux on ebay
http://www.yesasia.com/us/playstati...b-japan-version/1034043241-0-0-0-en/info.html is cheapest I found, 95$ free shipping

Free shipping? Sweet. Any taxes on that? I might bite.

Yes Asia is terrible. I ordered a 64 GB card from them with free shipping, and it never arrived. When I asked for a refund through a PayPal claim, they said they'd only do it if I closed the PayPal transaction. Super sketchy. Go with Nippon Yasan instead. It's a little more expensive to get it with tracking, but they're a lot more reliable.
Got mine a couple days ago.
Bought mine at Play-Asia. Never heard of Nippon Yasan. I'll have to check them out.
Thanks for this - they still had a bunch of them.
I've never had any problems with Yes-asia but I've only purchased Chinese or Korean movies/music from them.

If that was the Wind Waker bundle I would bite so hard......

They're open on the 1st?
YMMV. Where I live, on the other side of the country, my local store had none.
Probably selected stores only. I'm still waiting for any Vita deals.
End of the day for Jan 2? I think they are EST.
I'm not 100% on this but I seem to recall it being the end of that day listed. So closing Jan 2nd.

God damn it, that's the one I bought two days ago at $220 in Best Buy! Oh well, it's only 20 bucks.
I was at a FutureShop in Victoria today though, and they had stacks of these things. So I'm not surprised at all. Many other stores I went to were sold out of Wii U stuff though.

AB, BC and SK stores are open!
You can still price match your purchase, they will refund the difference!
Price match? I'm pretty they will allow it.

Oh and whoever bought these Sennheiser earbuds, they went down an extra $5, you better email BB and get your purchase PMed!
Also Xbone seems to be officially in stock at FS/BB online!

Does anyone have any laptop recommendations in the 4-6 hundred dollar range? I've been to a bunch of different shops but i've been having trouble finding one that is a really significant upgrade from the one i currently have.
My computer is 5 years old with a 1.8ghz processor and 3gb of ram, but it opens web pages faster than the 5-6 dollar laptops that ive been checking out at future shop and best buy and wherever I end up. With Quadcores and such they can actually play games whereas my computer cannot, and i know that laptops are not for gaming in general, but seriously, why are they so slow at opening web pages? I dont get it.

Almost always due to shitty slow harddrives.
I used to be a proponent for Dell but have switch to recommending Lenovo these days. Go for build quality and screen resolution if that's your price range.

No mandatory installs.

How does the hard drive affect how you cache and receive webpages? screen resolutions seem to be capped at around the same for every model so they are not the main concern.

i know they're the same company but i get faster shipping from BB than FS.
if its 120hz the better for a gaming hdtv imo

Ha, still stacks of them when I went by. Didn't see many Mario bundles though.
Yes i just did too. I ordered a keyboard from BB and it was already shipped the next hour, FS took about a day to even get it out of the warehouse

Slow speed with next to no cache so it's constantly spinning disk to load. Just open your current task manager, drop to the disk activity and sort by response time and then do some activities in your browser. When I swapped out to an SSD everything was blink of the eye fast give or take internet latency.
